“Riad Nezha: A home away from home!”

Riad Nezha is a gorgeous and authentic resort. The rooms were very Moroccan inspired but also had a touch of "hotel" with clean towels, soaps, etc. The food that is provided for breakfast, lunch and dinner is absolutely delicious and flavorful. The ingredients are bought fresh from the market and prepared in a beautiful manner. The poolside is fantastic and relaxing. I honestly can say that it is the people of this resort that made my stay memorable. Mohammed and the staff are so fun to be around and are also very resourceful when it comes to the town and the desert. I felt right at home and welcomed. I will definitely recommend the Riad Nezha to anyone and I will stay here again when i travel back to the Sahara desert!

Friday I had to sit through a whole day of Arabic and Making Sense of the Middle East classes awaiting my departure to the Sahara desert. I tried to pay attention but honestly, the only thing that I perfected on in my night class was how far apart to draw the camel's humps on my notes.

My last class was from five p.m. until 8 p.m. and …

The town in which Riad Nezha is located is very deserted. There were little kids running around the whole time barely clothed and begging for candy and dirhams. The houses and buildings were all compacted with straw and clay like mud. There were very interesting way that they irrigated their crops surrounding the town. The crops are grown in a grid …

After a light breakfast, we all showered and went on a 4x4 tour of surrounding towns and the desert. On the way, we stopped to see a desert fox. A-freakin-dorable. It looked like a little Chihuahua with bat ears and a white tiny body. If I could have any exotic animal as a pet it would be this little bugger.

The next stop was to hear …

... kazi 2 Holandani, kteri cenu zjistuji predem a mistni vykukove ji pro ni pekne zvedli.
Praxe je tu takova, ze sedame do taxi, platime predem jako mistni, aniz bychom vedeli kolik to stoji, ale nesidi nas, proste nas skasnou jako mistni.
Ale Holandany natahly a ted to zkousi i na nas. Tak jsem zvysila hlas a prohlasila, ze platime jako mistni, ze jinak nejedem, tak po chvilice vahani a dohadovani se mezi sebou, ustoupili.
Holandani byli celi prekvapeni, ze jedeme tak levne.

Good looking camels...........!

... they were all being refit for our return trek out of the dunes. After a pleasant and quicker return to the Kasbah, the Tuareg helpers were there in their indigo blue robes and highly photogenic turbans, to assist with as graceful a dismount from the camels as could be gained. I turned to thank my lovely hump and realised I was scratching my legs. Clearly, some little desert friends had decided to leave their mark!

The inclusive breakfast was ...
